Publication number: 20250033153Abstract: Described herein are examples of material removal machines with work tables separated by an air gap. In some examples. the air gap may provide space for a material removal tool of the material removal machine to extend between and substantially below the work tables to effect a deep cut on a workpiece that extends across the air gap. In some examples. a table actuator may be configured to move the work tables in tandem, allowing for the work tables and/or work piece to be moved to the material removal tool, rather than vice versa. Efficient design of the work tables and material removal machine ensures that the air gap between the work tables remains unobstructed all the way to a floor of the material removal machine. and ensures that the space underneath the work tables is sufficient for fluid/debris drainage and operator access.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 10, 2021Publication date: January 30, 2025Inventors: Calvin States Nelson, Timothy Patrick Weber, Ruibin Zhang, Jeffrey Robert Smith, Roland Schaefer
